“Hawaiʻi Stays With You,” the new marketing campaign for The Hawaiian Islands, made its global debut at SoFi Stadium during the Los Angeles Rams game—an intentional choice, as Southern California is Hawaiʻi’s top leisure market.

The campaign was developed by HVCB under the Hawaiʻi Tourism Authority’s strategic direction. Maui lei maker and campaign ambassador Britney Alejo-Fishell brought the campaign to life with a photo op adorned with lei while fans enjoyed hula kahiko performances by Hālau o Lilinoe.

Mahalo to all our partners who helped make this possible.

Across the Pacific, our oceans connect us, and so does our shared kuleana (responsibility) to protect them. 💙

This year, Sea The Future united youth from Hawai‘i, Australia, New Zealand, and the U.S. for five days of hands-on learning, connection, and environmental action in Maui.

Mahalo to our incredible partners, including Hawai‘i Tourism Oceania, , and the many organizations from Maui and beyond, who helped make this Pacific-wide effort possible. Together, we are showing how travel can do more than take us places. It can bring us together for positive change.

“The Hawaiians, we have a very, very strong connection to those that have already passed. They’re never really gone. They still live through us. And so, it’s so important to live with aloha, to live with love the best we can, because we’re continuing their legacy.” — Kumu Leināʻala Pavao Jardin

With heavy hearts, we remember Kumu Leināʻala Pavao-Jardin of Kaua‘i, a beloved Kumu Hula, cultural leader, and source of aloha whose grace and passion for hula inspired generations.

Finding inspiration in the wisdom of her own words, we honor her legacy as she lives on through her ‘ohana, her hālau hula, and all of us who had the privilege to know and love her.
